Mr. Rex probably went "Head to Head" with competitors I knew like Earl Crangle, Bob Wehle (Elhew Kennels), Bill McFadden, etc..

Chuck,
Can I assume that the Dunns are descendants of Wilson Dunn? Many years ago when the National Bird Dog Museum had just opened, my wife and I stopped in and were fortunate enough to get the grand tour from Mr. Wilson Dunn. What a gentleman! Thanks for posting these photos. Even a lifetime owner of Gordon Setters tips his hat to the winners at Grand Junction.

Yes Will is his grandson and the old Dunn's Supply was a have to when you visited Grand Junction. Wilson was deeply tied to the Bird dog world and was from the era of Nash Buckinham. He lived until 92 and was at Ames every year. Cabelas owns the Dunn's name now. Great old family name that is tied to fantastic dogs and great people. There is no place quite like the Hall of fame or the "old green steps". If you are a sporting dog owner you owe it to yourself to visit the museum. All sporting breeds are represented and their are some great photos of "Buck" and some of the other gentleman of a bye gone era. What a place...What a sport. Buck, Dr. Benton King and Hobart Ames |
